Quote: They are called the X-Case, by Heys and advertised as being "the world's lightest carry on". I have one and it weighs practically nothing when it's empty. And it wheels very nicely and has a super long handle. xo. PS - I have a new case and I'm taking peeectures of it right now! Yay! |

So I took some kickass pictures with my camera and then I realised that I didn't have the bloody camera cord thingy, so then I got crafty and took pictures with my MacBook. It was quite the challenge, so excuse the extreme shittiness of the following pictures.
Ahem!  So this is my new bag! It's from Make Up For Ever. It was pricey, but soooo worth it. My suitcase was a bit on the big side, and since I recently purged my makeup, I don't need that much room. Hooorah!  And here it is open! Whee! It has six pouches: two big ones (one is slightly deeper than the other), two medium ones, and two small ones.  The first big pouch (slightly shallower) is the one that I keep all my foundations and concealers in. And I still have some room for the purchases I'll be making at The Makeup Show.  This is the biggest pouch, and it has all of my tools and stuff, from nail polish remover to mascara wands to advil to cotton pads to brush cleaner etc etc!   The two smaller pouches have my face products, like blushes, highlighters, etc, and all of my random lip and eye products that don't fit into a palette.  The bigger of these two pouches has my moisturizers and stuff in it, and the smaller has all of my pencils and mascara, etc.  All of the pouches are attached with velcro and can be taken out. Super easy to just grab a pouch and walk on set, or whatever.  And the smaller side pouch in the bag has all of my palettes and other thin things, like paper towel and stuff.  Annnddd I finally got this! I love it soooo much more than my roll. It takes up very little space and I use the one side to hold all my dirty brushes so i can keep 'em separate from the clean ones. So awesome! Anndddd there you have it. I still have way too much makeup in my kit, but I can't bear to be without any less. Haha. S. |

Thanks for the feedback on the Heys case, Sian.
Your MUFE case still looks like it holds so much! I would LOVE to carry just that! |

parts of it fil's old lap top bag.. i ripped it apart with no mercy.. i took the shoulder strap and some panels from it.
the mesh were from a pair of track pants.. (i washed it first.. haha..) the pvc and army belt and ribbon are bought .. and the kleenex holder was cut out of a paperbag cuz i'm cheap and buy kleenex in bulk only.. the boxes are too big.

Gosh I love looking into other artists kits.
I do love the Heys suitcase but also love the MUFE case....But I am trying to switch to rolling cases since my neck has been hurting me for 2 weeks now. Love yours liz. I need to really get the freestyler pallettes you sell. They would fit that much more stuff in them...hehehe |

Yaay! I love to see all these wonderful pictures
 Whooohooo Liz!!! I can't believe how many goodies you have in your kit ... I'm drooling! And then Charlotte's, wow like a mac ambulant store ... so many stuff ... but most from mac  oh well I know you were warning us ... what can you do now you have it you have to use it  I like the organizing drawers on that case but that must be really heavy if you need to go upstairs with it, can't immagine doing it myself.To the ones whom haven't post yet, keep posting more pics pleeeeease!!! Love them all ~Alma
